hi, for years and years ive been using nuendo on a laptop with windsynth live as a vsti rack.
heres how i have it setup and some explanations why:

recently i had to install reaper to try out a vst plugin called midichords that because of nuendos routing limitations i wouldnt be able to use there to replace the nuendo/cubase only chorder plugin.
turned out midichords works so well and so much better than chorder that its forced me to change to reaper for playing live.
but as im duplicating the nuendo setup in the video on reaper and im getting up above 150 tracks im starting to get way to much cpu drain.
so i would also like this "smart solo" feature where any track you select is solod and all other tracks are muted EXCEPT the tracks that the selected track routes to or thru.
so for instance if i have a track called "aintno" and that sends to 3 other tracks which have midichord plugins and those tracks then send to the 3 vsti tracks clicking solo on the "aintno" track would solo all those tracks and mute all the others.
that would be great and make this really work nicely live.
for now im muting all the songs we hardly ever play and i might make macros to mute all the jazz songs after the jazz set is done , or all the country songs if its not that kind of gig, and all songs in alternate keys, stuff like that.
but the smart solo would be so much better and really maximize the ease and power.
thanks. im very very impressed with reaper and the developers.
